My British Empire

With the household registration reform, in addition to Scotland, the population of the entire United Kingdom has been released.

England has 1.3 million households and a population of 3.7 million. In ten years, it has increased by hundreds of thousands. The speed is indeed exaggerated.

Wales, with 100,000 households and a population of only 450,000, has not changed much.

Due to the migration of immigrants and criminals, Ireland has a population of 700,000, and the Celtics account for most of them.

Scotland is calculated by the Scottish local government itself, which is almost 1.1 million.

The population of Normandy is roughly calculated as 1.3 million, and that of Brittany is 400,000.

Calculated according to the rule of the United Kingdom today, the total population has reached 6.65 million.

This is a huge increase from the more than four million when the United Kingdom was first founded.

But nothing can be compared. Spain, excluding the Netherlands, has a population of 8 million; while France, which has been consumed by large-scale wars, has a population of about 16 million at this time.

The gap is still huge!

The king's heart was bleeding.

...

Ireland.

On the green grassland, there are flocks of cattle and sheep, and the white flocks are ups and downs, bleating non-stop, one by one, like mouthfuls of white rice cakes, scattered all over the green table, which makes people unbearable I want to sneak a bite.

At this moment, Andrew was thinking this way, looking at the snow-white lambs, wishing to swallow them one by one, this is a lot of wealth!

Wow, woof, woof! A piercing voice suddenly came from Andrew's ears. He turned his head and saw a few gray-and-white sheepdogs staring at him fiercely, their eyes full of repelling intentions.

Oh! Ace, you don't know me anymore, I'm Andrew!

Looking at the leading shepherd dog with a short gray tail and a ferocious expression, Andrew immediately felt relieved, squatted down, and said softly.

The shepherd dog named Ace tilted his head. After thinking for a while, he turned his head and gave a bark to the subordinates behind him. Then he slowly approached Andrew, raised his head, and stared at it with black eyes: Wow--

The shepherd dog barked again, and Andrew remembered it now, patted his forehead in frustration, and took out a piece of jerky from his pocket.

Here you are, what a greedy little guy, where is Leonard, take me to see your master!

Ace bit the jerky into his mouth without hesitation, then cocked his tail, turned around, led a few dog legs, and led the way, as if nothing happened just now.

Such a realistic dog, Andrew couldn't help laughing at it.

Following the dog, Andrew was in the stable and found Leonard who was midwifery for the horse.

The mare's high-pitched cry resounded throughout the stables, and a dozen or so nearby horses, who were grazing leisurely and grazing, also seemed to be joining in the fun at this moment, staring at them with wide-eyed eyes without blinking.

And their mouths were not idle, they kept chewing, taking a look, and lowered their heads to eat a mouthful of grass, as if they were watching a big show.

The midwife Leonard was on the haystack, with his head buried between the crotch of the horse, his right arm was vigorously digging out, while his left hand was gently patting the protruding horse belly, and his mouth kept comforting him.

咴咴儿—— There was a small cry from the horse, and Andrew knew that the mare had given birth naturally, and Leonard's task was completed.

Sure enough, after a while, a foal with twisted legs and watery fetus came out with the mare. The mare licked the foal's body, and Leonard, covered in blood and with short gray hair, walked away. come out.

Hey! Leonard! Andrew called.

Oh! Andrew, my friend, why are you here! Leonard said in surprise.

Seeing Leonard, who was covered in filth, was about to give him a hug, Andrew immediately walked aside in disgust, and said, Hey! Dude, go take a shower first!

Yes! Looking at himself, Leonard smiled.

Afterwards, Leonard, who was cleaned up, had a meeting with Andrew.

Unexpectedly, Leonard, I haven't seen you in half a year. Your pasture is even bigger. There must be no less than a thousand sheep!

Andrew looked at his friend who was full of wind and frost, and said tut-tsk.

It's nothing, it's just that the recent market is better and expand a little! Leonard waved his hand and said modestly.

Due to civil strife in the Netherlands, the textile industry began to decline, and gradually moved to England. The demand for wool increased day by day, and natural animal husbandry made a lot of money.

However, my friend, why do you have time to come to my place today? You are the deputy mayor of Wenger Town, and you are usually very busy!

Seeing Leonard's surprised face, Andrew smiled mysteriously and said:

My Leonard, guess what?

Go ahead! I can't guess!

Okay! You are so funny! Andrew said boringly, and then he smiled again, Congratulations, Leonard, you have been promoted!

Because of your strategy, the tax revenue has increased by three levels. The county magistrate is very happy and has decided to appoint you as a member of the county finance committee. You are about to control the county's finances, much better than me as the deputy mayor!

Andrew looked at his friend and said jealously.

A while ago, using his literacy and connections as a former official, Leonard brought new orders to Wenger County, which greatly increased the county's finances.

I didn't come from an exam? Is that okay? Leonard asked involuntarily.

Of course, it is possible now. The county chief personally recommended it, and the governor and the county chief should approve it! Andrew said with certainty, However, in a few years, it may not be so!

Ireland implements the county system, county-county-town, three levels of rule, one level of checks and balances, and of course, those Kate people belong to self-government!

Indeed, those who took the exam gradually moved from England to Ireland, occupying most of the official positions, and it is difficult for us to get ahead! Leonard nodded and agreed.

The two talked while walking.

Recently, the Governor's Office issued a decree, requiring each county to establish a primary school with a six-year system, and all minors must go to school. It is mandatory!

In the future, you can no longer sell salt casually. Except for companies approved by the coalition government, no company or individual can sell salt anymore!

All Bibles will be recalled, and only the revised version of the Kingdom is allowed, and it's still in English!

Wait, English version? Leonard asked suspiciously.

Yes, the cabinet gathered a large number of people. After several years of revisions, the so-called 'correct pronunciation' was finally released! A pronunciation based on the regional pronunciation of London has been extended to the whole country!

As a Welshman, Andrew naturally looked down on Londoners, and also looked down on the so-called correct pronunciation of Mandarin with London as the standard.

However, His Majesty requires that all officials must be able to speak the London accent, otherwise they will be dismissed from office!

Speaking of this, Andrew said with a sad face, and he couldn't help but infected Leonard, making him feel aggrieved.

Yes, London sounds the worst!
